Both constructivist and sociocultural views of learning and instruction stresses the crucial role of active engagement. It has been demonstrated in large-scale studies that curricula that use "active engagement" instructional strategies achieve good results in conceptual tests. However most testing have been done at the end or immediately after a course. The important question is thus if strategies that purport to achieve high gains in conceptual tests produce a permanent change in student's world view from "Aristotelian" to "Newtonian" or if the effects reported are only temporary? Our data and data from Montana State University show that, after active engagement physics courses, student display a good conceptual understanding several years after instruction. It is thus concluded that some instructional strategies do achieve fundamental shifts in students' conceptual framework.
